“I have a question I never imagined I’d have to ask in the United States. Not, ‘Are you worried about where the country is heading?’ We’re past that. It’s a question I keep asking myself — and now I’m asking you: What has to happen before you actively push back at a government transforming into authoritarian state before our eyes? Will you show up? Will you raise your voice? Will you find a place in the growing resistance movement? Because here’s what haunts me: law, decency, and truth are all buckling — and far too many people are still waiting until they’re personally threatened before they act.” (02/09/26)
